When Philip Santini nticed an infectin, he cntacted his primary care physician, Jane Chargt, M. D. , and she gave him sme medicine.
Hwever, test results shwed that he wasn’t recvering. Over the phne, Santini was tld he wuld need t g t the hspital t get infusins (输液) three times a day fr a week. He was packed and ready t head ut t the hspital when he received anther phne call. An alternative plan was suggested instead — Hspital Care at Hme.
Care at Hme, a Michigan Medicine prgram which imprves the patient experience while freeing up hspital beds, has already admitted and transferred mre than 50 patients frm the emergency department and inpatient hspital t receive hspital level care frm the cmfrt f their wn hmes.
Santini was the first direct registratin patient fr this prgram, meaning he never presented t the hspital initially. It was n surprise that there was a celebratin fr this milestne.
“I was ready t head ut t the emergency department,” said Santini, wh even had a list f things t take when he gt a call frm Stephanie Paran, R. N. , a nurse at U-M Briarwd Family Medicine. “Hearing Paran’s wrds, I sprang t my feet and didn’t hesitate t accept the advice.”
Althugh he initially didn’t knw what t expect, he later said what the care team did was far beynd his expectatins, especially the caregivers. The staff gave him infusins three times a day fr six days. They tk his regular medicatins away, just like hw they wuld in a hspital. They checked the infectin, drew bld and even brught in an ultrasund machine. “I didn’t knw that was pssible,” Santini said. After discharge, a Michigan Visiting Nurse visited nce a week until he cmpletely recvered.
Santini believed treatment at hme has helped the healing prcess. “I’ve never felt really cmfrtable in the hspital,” he said. “It’s hard t get gd sleep there. At hme I had my wn fd, my wn bed, plus my wife is here. N ne has t g ut f their way t visit me. It’s a healthier experience. I wuld encurage anyne t cnsider it.”

C. It can avid the waste f medical resurces.
D. It can imprve the dctr-patient relatinship.

Humans have a way f understanding thers’ gals, desires and beliefs, a crucial skill that allws us t anticipate peple’s actins. Taking bread ut f the taster? Yu’ll need a plate. Sweeping up leaves? Yu’ll grab the green trash can. This skill, ften referred t as “thery f mind”, cmes easily t us as humans, but fr rbts it still has a high muntain t cnquer.
In a recent study, cmputer science researchers made the rbt “watch” the human cmplete the task using a camera placed directly abve the assembly(组装)area, lking dwn. T detect the parts perated by the human, the system used AprilTags, similar t QR cdes, attached t the parts. Then, the system used machine learning t learn a persn’s preference based n their rders f actins in the task. “Based n hw a persn perfrms the small assembly, the rbt predicts what that persn will d in the larger assembly,” said Nemlekar. “Fr example, if the rbt sees that a persn likes t start the small assembly with the easiest part, it will predict that they will start with the easiest part in the large assembly as well. ”
In the researchers’ user study, their system was able t predict the actins that humans will take with arund 82% accuracy. “We hpe that ur research can make it easier fr peple t shw rbts what they prefer,” said Nemlekar. “By helping each persn in their preferred way, rbts can reduce their wrk, save time and even build trust with them.”This technlgy culd als be useful in industrial settings where wrkers are tasked with assembling prducts in large numbers, saving time and reducing the risk f injury r accidents. Additinally, it culd help persns with disabilities t mre easily assemble prducts and maintain independence.
“Our gal is nt t replace humans n the factry flr. I expect similar findings in ther applicatins as well, ” said Niklaidis. “A rbt that can quickly learn ur preferences can help us prepare a meal, rearrange furniture r d huse repairs, having a significant impact n ur daily lives. ”
8. What des the underlined part mean in Paragraph 1?
A. It’s refreshing.B. It’s challenging.
C. It’s unachievable.D. It’s ridiculus.
9. What d researchers want t “teach” rbts t d in assembly tasks?
A. T predict human preferences.B. T get the tasks finished easily.
C. T think n their wn.D. T avid human errrs.
10. What can we learn abut the rbts frm the last tw paragraphs?
A. They can replace humans.B. They’ve been widely used.
C. They’ve imprved their accuracy.D. They can d gd t the disabled.
11. Where can the text prbably be fund?
A. In a lab guidebk.B. In a cmputer textbk.
C. In a science newspaper.D. In an academic paper.

In her bk, O’Cnnr als talks abut the larger idea f science — namely the imprtance f making mistakes. Each mistake, she said, leads us clser t the truth.“Science is essentially a series f mistakes. And every mistake, yu knw, infrms us a little bit mre and gives us a little bit mre infrmatin. But pretty much everything that we think is ‘truth’ right nw is prbably at least partly wrng. Yu knw, there is s much we dn’t knw. But mistakes are part f the prcess. ”
O’Cnnr is a Chinese-Irish American wh grew up in Pasadena, Califrnia. She did nt always want t study the remains f ancient living things. She began studying gelgy, like her mther. “But in my case, my mther went back t schl t d her PhD when I was arund 10 years ld. And s, she had fur kids…S, she wuld take us with her t nt nly the labratry, but als int the field, which means ging ut t cllect samples. S, I fell in lve with gelgy.”
Hwever, O’Cnnr had a larger gal in mind when she wrte her bk. She said, “Thrugh having greater respect fr the living animals arund us, I hpe that peple start t think mre abut hw they impact the envirnment thrugh their actins, s that we can all mve twards a mre sustainable future.”
12. Which is ne f the gals f O’Cnnr’s bk accrding t Paragraph 2?

15. What des O’Cnnr expect f her readers?
